Is it likely that Barry Bonds would have been playing at the time?

I was AT that game.
I took a picture of the scoreboard before the 'quake and got that picture blown up into a 20" x 30" poster... which I took the better part of the next decade getting signed by as many A's & Giants as I could.
I included the starting line ups, pitching staff, bullpen, managers, coaches, general managers, broadcasters (including the three guys on ABC)
At one point at spring training a kid asked me if I was trying to get Barry Bonds autograph on it, and I said "no." He asked "what if Barry wanted to sign it?" My response was "No, not even if he asked. Barry played for the Pirates that season."

Bonds was with the Pirates in 1989, and they did not play on into October.
The Loma Prieta earthquake struck on 17-Oct-1989, shortly before the scheduled start of Game 3 of the World Series.

He was a pirate and went to San Fran in '93 after a trade that would have sent him to the Braves didn't fall through 30 minutes before the press conference to announce him a Brave b/c Jim Leyland said he would resign on the spot if they traded Bonds.....

Not very likely. He didn't join the Giants until 1993. If the Pirates were visiting that day you're chances increase dramatically.
